Updated Team - Rate/Fix

[ScizorRules]

Again, same deal. Overall improved, but I have just about everything and can breed just about everything, so any further viable suggestions/fixes are welcome. Still might not be perfect on the spreads (and again, they might not be exactly accurate, but accurate enough), but I think the movesets are just about done (with maybe a few exceptions, still wondering about the last move for Tyranitar and whether I should use Rain Dance with Rain Dish or Swift Swim or just use Substitute).

Thunderbolt over psychic. No need for it when you already have Shadow Ball.

If your going to run CBtar, why are you using substitute O_o. Switch it out for Pursuit.

Ok, but maybe over flamethrower use Swords Dance, and Stone Edge over Earthquake possibly, but you have t-punch...

Ehh, rain dance I guess. If your going to use Rain Dance, you should use another pokemon that gets support from the rain (such as Kingdra?). Or CBFloatzel over Tt-ar?

Eh, standard.

Overall, your team looks ok.

Thanks. As far as T-Tar goes, I've gotten different suggestions on him. Pursuit just doesn't seem necessary to me. T-Tar's attack is through the roof now that I've finished training, and with the power he has I don't see Pursuit ever being as powerful as these other moves, not strategically, and certainly not as a general attack.

As far as Infernape, I don't like the idea of non-attack moves simply for the fact that he's mainly an attacker and too fragile to withstand many attacks.

Easily predicting switches will allow pursuit to do MASSIVE damage. Also, why would you use substitute when your using choice band? Well, a good alternative for pursuit is an elemental fang.

Good point. I'm just shopping around trying to find a move that's worth using. I guess I can keep Pursuit. As far as the fangs, I'll look into it. I've also thought about Dragon Dance.

CBtar does much more damage than DDtar. But if you do choose to do so, then use life orb.

Actually, I think I'll go with Ice Fang. Also, I'm thinking, not definitely, but maybe having Aqua Ring/Hypnosis instead of Rest/Sleep Talk for Milotic (I believe this takes a bit advantage of Ludicolo's Rain Dance), not for sure yet, though.

As far as giving Thunderbolt over Psychic to Gengar, it's a toss-up. Without Psychic, I have nothing too effective against Fighting types without it. With Infernape, at least I have Thunderpunch against Water/Flying types. It's basically 1/1 or 2/0, so for now I think I'll stick with 1/1.
